Hello i've made a playlist file to watch some Italians streaming channels.

The national TV don't like any browser rather then the following user agent :


Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009020911 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.6

Other user agents will work but at least i'm sure that this user agent work, since i'm using it on VLC.

Now if i play my playlist on Boxee i've got an error message like when I use default user agent in VLC. this make me think that boxee browser isn't like this :

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009020911 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.6

Question is : how do I change the browser user agent in Boxee Beta 0.9.20?

Thank you very much for you kind replay.

I was only able to test on Windows, for now. It looks like Boxee is using Mozilla 3.5.x... do you know if your sites work with FF 3.5?

Hi , boxee user agent it's good but the web site www.rai.tv force to use microsoft silverlight . Boxee can't play this streams not only because of the user agent but also for other reasons.

Thanks for you support anyway.
